bukhari:268Muḥammad b. Bashhār > Muʿādh b. Hishām from my father > Qatādah > Anas b. Mālik

Anas bin Malik said, "The Prophet ﷺ used to visit all his wives in a round, during the day and night and they were eleven in number." I asked Anas, "Had the Prophet ﷺ the strength for it?" Anas replied, "We used to say that the Prophet ﷺ was given the strength of thirty (men)." And Saʿid said on the authority of Qatada that Anas had told him about nine wives only (not eleven).  

البخاري:٢٦٨حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَدُورُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فِي السَّاعَةِ الْوَاحِدَةِ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَهُنَّ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَنَسٍ أَوَكَانَ يُطِيقُهُ قَالَ كُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّهُ أُعْطِيَ قُوَّةَ ثَلاَثِينَ وَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ إِنَّ أَنَسًا حَدَّثَهُمْ تِسْعُ نِسْوَةٍ

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, it is reported that he used to visit his wives in a span of one hour, during the day or night, and he had eleven wives. So I asked Anas ibn Malik, "Was he able to do that?" He replied, "We used to say that he was given the strength of thirty men."  

ابن حبّان:١٢٠٨أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah used to visit his wives day and night, and they were eleven in number. I asked Anas, "Could he afford to have relations with all of them?" Anas replied, "We used to say that he was given the strength of thirty men." This is the wording of the hadith of Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr, and its meaning is also mentioned in the hadith of Ibn Bashshar. In another narration by Ibn Al-Muthanna, it states the strength of forty men. Anas also said, "He [the Prophet] used to visit his wives during the day and night."
